First public release of Marmote and MarmoteMDP
Marmote is a software library and C++ API for specifying Markov Chains (state spaces and transitions) and solving them via a large variety of methods. MarmoteMDP is dedicated to modeling with MDPs.
The first public release of both libraries is available through the web site with installation instructions, documentation and many examples.
